Figuring out WHY the Old Skid Steer SMOKES Like a Chimney!!! ~ 1995 Gehl 5625sx Skid Loader

From the day I rescued this skid steer, the Perkins Diesel engine has run FLAWLESSLY, until now!

For some reason the machine has become really hard starting and has started smoking A LOT. That in turn has cause a loss in power and so I've decided that we need to figure out what's going on before something much worse happens!

So the plan today is to start diagnosing the issue so we can figure out what we need to fix to correct these issues!

Sit back, relax, and enjoy everything we have to do to work our way through the fuel system and try and figure out what is causing this old Gehl to run SO poorly!
